Dear Nick,

thank you for the information on the independence (of the outcomes of
the dependent variable, I suppose).

Of course, you are right, it's not really a "normal distribution", but
roughly symmetric about its mean. I just wanted to point out that
there is not an unusual high fraction of zeros which would lead to
considering zero-inflated negative binomial model or similar ones.
